My first impression was that they were brightly colored petticoats. I'm not sure that's what they were meant to look like though. Were the girls in dresses and poodle ladies from local groups, or did Disney create them for the occasion?

Gimme the wonderful former WDW Easter Parade and Town Square Easter show of the early 80s. I think it's insulting the Easter celebration has been reduced to some uppity punk poodles down Main Street.

I seem to recall an announcement from Corporate that this would return on Main Street this year along with the success of other holidays creating more crowd turnout (since the resorts are always empty).

But if TDLFAN were here, I'm sure he'd be telling you about the wonderful WDW Easter Parade that was killed in a cost-cutting move almost a decade ago now. He'd also likely point out how TDR has ADDED a whole Easter/Spring seasonal event at its parks this year, yet again giving guests more and new things to do while WDW trots out a 1972-era parade, hits a button on ToT to change the drop profile and brings back the Princess and Pirate Party pyro (love that alliteration) and calls everything NIGHTASTIC!

Originally Posted By bobbelee9 Yeah, I didn't appreciate him downing WDW all the time, but his review of the reopening of HM, had me drooling just waiting to go see it. That report was great.
